The Thanksgiving countdown is on. Have you started cooking or baking yet? Or planning? I’m hoping my appetite will return by Thursday so I can get in the holiday spirit. The supermarket was super busy this evening, and so many people in the aisles seemed to be discussing recipes and menus. It was actually fun …
How was your Thanksgiving? I had a good one, a smaller crowd at my cousin’s house this year than usual, but it was fine. I was glad to be able to eat turkey, stuffing, my carrot soufflé, squash, and green beens. Yum. What was your favorite dish this year? Have you done any shopping this …
Sad to see the holiday weekend coming to an end! How about you? Did you do any holiday shopping? I really haven’t so far. There are so many deals it’s almost overwhelming. But for those of you who have been wanting to pick up a Viseart eyeshadow palette, there’s a 20% off Friends and Family …
Happy Weekend! Saturday was a beautiful, sunny day with temps around 50 degrees which is amazing for December. Jeff and I drove up to Newburyport, a historic port town north of where I live. How clear and calm the blue water looked! It was a great day for holiday shopping, strolling and just being out …
I’m so excited that it’s going to be 60 degrees today in Boston in almost mid-December! Thank you, thank you! All the better to do holiday shopping or just do fun things outdoors. I couldn’t be happier! Hope it’s as nice where you are. I’m mostly finished with my shopping. How’s it going for you? …
Enjoying the run up to Christmas? Got all your shopping done? It’s a beautiful but chilly day here in MA, and we’re at a loss for what to do. Not exactly strolling outside temperatures, and we definitely want to stay out of the malls. We’ve been to all the museums nearby recently. Hmmm. I hate …
Hope you had a marvelous Christmas celebration! What was your most memorable gift either to give or to receive?? I know it’s a busy weekend, but if you have a few moments check out this past week’s posts from The Beauty Spotlight Team. Phyrra is having her biggest giveaway of the year with Urban Decay, Too …
This has been a sad, crazy week. My aunt, who was like a second mother to me after my mom died many years ago, passed away on New Year’s Day. She was one of a kind, unforgettable and irreplaceable. She wouldn’t take no for an answer, and was on occasion a pain in the neck, …
Hey ladies, Beauty Blog Coalition had a software glitch over the weekend, so the current Weekly Roundup didn’t get to post on Sundays as it usually does. But here it is with lots of good beauty reading for the New Years. Also, a couple of things. Last call for the Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream Giveaway. …
Saturday means this week’s posts from the Beauty Spotlight Team. Have a look, and have a great day! The latest big obsession on Lola’s Secret Beauty Blog isn’t actually makeup or skincare, but instead a S’well Water Bottle that keeps liquids cold for 24 hours and hot for 12. Luminous skin begins with good …
Woohoo! I’m first! I never get to be first. I’m usually last. Well, this week I was on the ball with the link to my perfume giveaway! If you are adventurous and would like to try a new scent, check out my review of indie brand, Juliette Has A Gun, and the scent, Lady Vengeance. …
Happy Sunday, ladies! Hope you’re having a good weekend. I must say that we had several fun things going on. I don’t know if this is your thing, but it is mine. Jeff and I went to an HD performance from the Metropolitan Opera of Turandot. I had seen it at the Met a number of …
I may have mentioned before that I love opera. Since I left New York, it’s been more difficult to get to performances. Last weekend, I was lucky to go to a simulcast performance live from the Met. And tonight on PBS, I saw the Richard Tucker Gala with some of operas most fabulous voices. It ended late, …
We got about 7 inches of snow, I guess. And it was time to break out the snow shoes, after cleaning up the driveway and shoveling the walkway and steps. Thanks Jeff for doing the heavy lifting. We went to the woods behind Gordon College for a little snow shoeing. It was very beautiful because …
Happy President’s and Valentine’s Weekend, depending on where in the world you are! But hopefully everyone celebrates or chooses not to celebrate Valentine’s Day. It seems to me like some women are making a big deal out of saying you shouldn’t have just one day to let your loved one know how you feel, and …
